0.56 M
We are given;
Mass of glucose solute is 50.50 g
Volume of solution is 500 mL
We are required to calculate the concentration of glucose.
We need to know that, molarity is the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
Molarity = Number of moles ÷ Molar mass
Molar mass of glucose = 180.16 g/mol
Mass of glucose = 50.50 g
Therefore, Moles of Glucose = 50.50 g ÷ 180.16 g/mol
= 0.280 Moles
We can use the formula to calculate the molarity of glucose solution
Moles of glucose = 0.280 moles
Volume of solution = 500 mL or 0.5 L
Molarity = 0.280 moles ÷ 0.5 L
= 0.56 moles/L
= 0.56 M
Therefore, the concentration of glucose is 0.56 M
